McLaren Artura Review
Discussion
I just spent 4 days and did a bit over 400 miles in an Artura. Here's the summary of the review:
The Artura is really the 1st McLaren Supercar designed to be a daily driver. Others can be used for daily driving, but the Artura is just that much better at it. At the same time, switching among the different handling and powertrain modes transforms the Artura in a much more dramatic way than any of its predecessors. It truly goes from docile city car to feral supercar with a few turns of the dial. The hybrid system works brilliantly and doesn’t compromise the driving experience, in fact it enhances is it. The only negatives I found were the driver’s display graphics were a bit on the ordinary side and the frunk isn’t quite as generous as the one on the 765LT Spider. The steering, sightlines, braking, and acceleration were all very much up to what I would expect from a McLaren Supercar. Overall, it’s a brilliant piece of engineering and design that exceeded my expectations.

In what ways do you feel that the Artura makes for a better daily driver than a GT?
Obviously it should be more economical, but is it more practical? Easier to get in and out of? More comfortable? More tech? etc etc..
Edit: Just found and read your full review, that answers my questions!
